Biral

Manufacturer : Biral

Category : Airforce

Biral designs and manufactures a range of instruments for the detection of airborne biological particles. These have been primarily for the detection and characterization of biological weapons and Biral detection equipment has been included in every generation of bio detector in service with the UK armed forces. Our latest real time detection system, VeroTect™, is now being used or assessed by armies and domestic security services world-wide.

Specific Bio Detector

Biral has won the PIBBDT (Portable Integrated Battlespace Biological Detection Technology) project to develop a small, highly automated Specific Bio Detector demonstrator. Biral leads the consortium selected by the UK MoD to develop a new Specific Bio Detector that will represent a quantum step in the technology available to the military. The current system is highly effective but requires a specialized vehicle, a dedicated supply chain and a skilled military crew to run it. The objective for the Specific Bio Detector is that it should be easily transportable with small non-specialist vehicles and should require only occasional attendance by maintenance crews for very simple procedures. The cutting-edge technology will be based partly on research carried out at Dstl, Porton Down and partly on independent research carried out by members of the consortium. The use of novel micro-engineering techniques together with Specific Bio Detectors based on optical microchips will enable a very compact system to be built. Advanced systems engineering techniques will be employed to ensure that the instrument operates as a fully integrated unit with very high reliability.

Stand-off Detection Systems

The ability to detect the presence of biological clouds at distance provides clear advantages in terms of advance warning of the threat and therefore greater safety afforded to personnel. Considerable research effort has been and is being devoted to the development of fieldable UV LIDAR (LIght Detection And Ranging) Stand-off Detection Systems. Biral's investment in Stand-off Detection Systems includes active participation as members of the International Project Working Groups SG80 SG85 in the NATO stand-off detection initiative, a study to establish the best means of achieving an early in service LIDAR capability. In support of Stand-off Detection Systems Biral is collaborating with other European organizations who are experts in military laser development. Biral also participated in the 2 year EU funded PASR (Preparatory Action for Security Research) BODE (Biological Optical Detection Experiment) project to develop and characterise a short range LIDAR suitable for civil defence applications. Biral delivered the optical receiver and associated detection electronics for integration into the complete system.

GENERIC BIO DETECTOR

Manufacturer : Biral

Category : Airforce

Product Name :
GENERIC BIO DETECTOR

VeroTect Generic Bio Detector is a state of the art generic BWA (Biological Warfare Agent) detector operating in real time with a very low cost of ownership. VeroTect Generic Bio Detector is the only commercially available real-time bio detector that measures the shape of an airborne particle in real time, as well as its size and total particle concentration, together with the fluorescence response of the sample aerosol. This ability of VeroTect Generic Bio Detector to characterise the aerosol by measuring a number of different properties is then enhanced by VeroWarn, a suite of powerful detection algorithms which interpret the data to provide effective discrimination between threats and non-threats. The VeroTect Generic Bio Detector is low maintenance, has a low false alarm rate and can be rapidly deployed.

BIO DETECTION SOFTWARE

Manufacturer : Biral

Category : Airforce

Product Name :
BIO DETECTION SOFTWARE

VeroWarn Bio Detection Software provides a complete bio agent detection solution. By constantly monitoring all of the ambient aerosol parameters measured by VeroTect, the VeroWarn Bio Detection Software rapidly and reliably detects the presence of bio agents. Combining sophisticated detection algorithms with a multi-parameter measurement approach ensures optimum sensitivity whilst minimizing false alarms. The VeroWarn Bio Detection Software can be supplied already installed in the VeroTect, as a stand alone application or integrated into the users’ system software. No matter how it is deployed the simple interface provides the user with all the operational information required.

NON-SPECIFIC BIO DETECTOR

Manufacturer : Biral

Category : Airforce

Product Name :
NON-SPECIFIC BIO DETECTOR

The Aspect Non-Specific Bio Detector is used for monitoring bio aerosol levels and uses ASAS technology to measure the size and shape of single aerosol particles. The shape feature of Aspect Non-Specific Bio Detector is especially useful in discriminating between battlefield man made interferents such as smokes and diesel oils. The Aspect Non-Specific Bio Detector ASAS technology has been in service with the UK MOD as the non specific bio detector in the PBDS (Prototype Biological Detection System) since the early 1990's and the upgraded version is a key element of the follow on IBDS (Integrated Biological Detection System).

Aspect Non-Specific Bio Detector has been adopted as the non specific trigger detector for the Japanese Defence Agency mobile CBRN Reconnaissance vehicles.
